Fom, how little faith you have. We're all still here, we just have nothing to say.
And yes, welcome, Mr Fancypants. Swift Current right? I have a bunch of family there and in Gull Lake as well. Used to live in Swift current, and then Web, and Rosetown and Gull lake before moving to Manitoba. We moved a lot!

Hey Mil1ion, I spent a few years growing up in Web and Gull Lake. Still have family there too. And Swift Current. My Dad was born and raised just south of Swift Current.
WHen I was out in Saskatoon, I stayed at Laura's Lodge and met a family from Swift CUrrent that Knew one of My uncles from there as well. VERY small world indeed.

Whereabouts near SC ?
I don't know how old you are, your profile doesn't say.

What family name should I consider asking about ?

By just south do you mean the Neidpath, Hallonquist area?

Hallonquist sounds familiar. I know it was less than 10 miles south. We baried Grandma at a cemetary right near the old farmstead back in '95. There's a newer house there now. The cemetary is on the WEst side of the road and farmstead on the East. I'll have to ask Dad exactly where it was located. Dad is 62. I'm just a Pup. Only 31. He was the only boy and had 8 sisters. Born to Henry and Helena Dyck.
As for Gull lake, My uncle that's there is Gerry Wiebe, but he Married Earl Line's daugter and owns Central Gravel.
